Rece Davis’ top 10 college football rankings after Week 11

Georgia is no longer a top 10 team according to college football analyst Rece Davis

ESPN “College GameDay” analyst Rece Davis released his top 10 rankings after Week 11 of the college season. Davis has a vote for the Associated Press and agreed with the media consensus for his top team this week. He ranked the Oregon Ducks No. 1.

Unfortunately for UGA fans, he ranked the Georgia Bulldogs outside of the top 10 for the first time in nearly four years. It was well-deserved after a rough 28-10 loss to the Ole Miss Rebels, where Carson Beck and the Georgia offense turned the ball over three times. Ole Miss, for their part, usurps Georgia for the No. 10 spot.

Georgia is in win-or-die mode heading into their home matchup vs. Tennessee, who is the No. 5 team in Davis’ rankings. A loss to Tennessee could eliminate Georgia from the College Football Playoff picture, but a win would keep Georgia alive in the SEC championship race.

Two other big matchups took place this weekend. Alabama and LSU matched up in a must-win game and it appears only Alabama got the memo, sinking the Tigers 42-13 thanks to 185 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns from quarterback Jalen Milroe. Alabama is ranked No. 9. LSU, is outside of the top 10 and has no hope of making the playoff now.

The other big matchup was Miami at Georgia Tech. The Hurricanes were looking to keep their undefeated season alive. They were in position to prove all the preseason doubters wrong and go on a magical run, but their undefeated run ended with a 28-23 loss to the Yellow Jackets. Now, Miami also falls out of the top 10, plummeting to No. 12 behind Georgia on the list.

Week 12 will feature some more games with massive implications. Georgia’s matchup versus Tennessee will have the most coverage on it, but Clemson’s matchup versus Pittsburgh is another one to keep an eye on.

Thanks to Miami’s loss, the Clemson Tigers find themselves in the second spot in the ACC and a win against Pittsburgh would go a long way in making sure they play in the ACC championship against SMU or Miami.
